Description

If I select word "World" in demo in Firefox 28 and I click on link button, and create a link, link is created and selection seemingly keeps link selected. But when I click on the link button again, to edit the link, I get initial empty dialog box.

In Chrome the same series of steps works.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Firefox handles selection after a link is inserted. Compare the behavior with Chrome to identify event or timing differences.
